For the past couple of months the word praying has been on my mind. I got saved when I was 15 years old and I remember that day like it was yesterday. I can’t even tell you at the time what our pastor was talking about that morning but something came over me and all I wanted him to do was to shut up so I could get my butt down there to the alter. The whole church service that morning I was praying to god to help me get down to the alter, I had a friend beside (Kala) and I ask her if she would go up there with me when it was time. Finally, it was time and all I can remember was taking Kala’s hand and taking that first step. From Kala story I took her and as soon as I got up I let go and pretty much ran down to the pastor with tears running down my face.
Little did I know that was the beginning of my praying.
In high school I prayed at night and that was all, in college it kept getting shorter but I prayed at night, until I might my sweet, loving husband. He showed me what I knew and saw when I was 15 years old the power of praying. Zach and I have been trying our hardest to live and create a house of the Lord. I have learned that praying the Scriptures will increase your spiritual growth. You actually learn what God says about certain situations, and by praying His Word you will see His results. Many people have testified that just by praying the healing scriptures they have been healed, physically as well as mentally. Zach and I have commitment to pray more throughout the day to just thank God for so many blessings.
Most people when they hear the word commitment, their first response is, "I don't have time for another commitment." But if you want your circumstances in your life to change you need to make a commitment to pray the Scriptures out loud every day. Then you will see how praying with the powerful force of God's Word will cause you to be praying in victory. You will have victory in your life, in your home, and be able to handle situations as easily as Jesus would have handled them.
Always Pray.
P.S. Pray for Zach and I we are going through a lot of decisions and trials for our future and we are praying we are choosing the right ones J
